All parts are available new from Minispares.
I replace all but the brass bit as a matter of course.

Is that the brass one you need John ?
Also got some of the union bolts at the platers at the moment if you are in no hurry ?

Re: Front subframe brake unions
Pretty sure I have the 90 degree one I can spare.
I'll look later and let you know.
Typically, I sent your switch off this morning .. too damned efficient .

Re: Front subframe brake unions
The 'straight' one (one legged kicked up slightly) or the 90 degree one?

I probably have a straight fitting but not 100%. Can check later this evening.
